So many things can crop up during the postpartum period, but they are swept under the rug because we assume that they are part of the process, but they don’t have to be. Most women postpartum are more susceptible to nutritional depletion, anemia, osteopenia, depression, anxiety, and fatigue. Studies show that one in five women experience signs of postpartum depression. However, if you have more social support, you are less likely to be affected by mental health issues. This makes a postpartum care plan very important. In this episode, Jessica shares her postpartum experience and what she wishes she had done differently to make her transition smoother.
Learn how to create your postpartum plan for a smooth transition into and through the postpartum in this episode of the Mamas in Training Podcast with Jessica D’Argenio Waller!

Just because we are given that clearance from our doctor at the 6-week mark, does not mean that we should jump right into sexual activity and we might not even emotionally feel ready. In this episode with Cindy Scharkey, we are honing in on sex in postpartum. The fourth trimester is truly that, a FOURTH trimester and should be treated as such. Cindy discusses how that really is a societal change that we all need to make because it's sending the wrong message to new mothers. As an RN, who's been a healthcare professional for over 35 years. And the host of the podcast, Permission for Pleasure. She tells us the reality of what to expect both physically and emotionally during postpartum.
Hear some amazing tips to start easing into intimacy when you're ready and what to do if things don't quite seem right on this episode of the Mamas in Training Podcast!
*This episode has two parts, so make sure to go back to last week’s episode to gain more insight from Cindy.

Of course, when our partners are sloppy around the house, we don't like that! But as normal as it sometimes can get, it just sends us in a spiral of very emotional thoughts and can greatly affect our relationship over time. Failing to bring ourselves out of that spiral can't mean good. We might end up souring how we see our partners more than we should. In this episode, Dr. Morgan Cutlip speaks about the responsibility we have on how we see our partners, how parenthood affects satisfaction, the common unexplored self-expectations for women and moms, maternal gatekeeping, and how to involve your partner right from the beginning in motherhood.
Listen to how you can strengthen your relationship before parenthood in this episode of the Mamas in Training Podcast with Dr. Morgan Cutlip!

People say that parenting is instinctive, and that's true. But what they fail to include is that it is also a very long learning process for moms. Every day, you learn something about your baby that becomes a new part of your motherhood. And seeking support from a lactation expert will only optimize that learning process as a parent even more, especially in regards to nursing. In this episode, Jada Shapiro talks about the link between breastfeeding and your ability to produce milk, the concept of the breast crawl along with the importance of skin to skin, the perfect time to introduce bottle feeding to your baby, how to approach tongue ties, and so much more.
Learn about the primary purpose of lactation 101 in this episode of the Mamas in Training Podcast with Jada Shapiro!

Supporting your baby’s early explorations with food is not something you can overlook. That's because their interaction with food at an early stage will affect their relationship with nutrition as they grow. So how do we set our children up for success when it comes to food, diet, and health and NOT have them become picky? In this episode, Jenny Friedman, a registered dietician nutritionist, talks about the approach and techniques to use when feeding a baby and into the toddler years, to help prevent them from becoming a picky eater. We also discuss the most important aspect of picky eating and how we could subconsciously be encouraging picky eating.
Learn about how you can be a model eater for your child in this episode of the Mamas in Training Podcast with Jenny Friedman!
